Repairing versus replacing in Michaelston
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Your questions about bath repair in Michaelston
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How much does bath repair cost in Michaelston?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Michaelston. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Neath Port Talbot and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
